Anyone try this?
« on: March 17, 2009, 06:52:32 AM »
Long story short. I ordered a cee bailey shield for my 2000 SERG on Feb 20. Fed Ex dropped by on the 24th. I was not home, they sent it back to California the same day. Now on the 16th of March I get my shield, but it is for an 09 SERG. And this after I sent them an email to be sure that I was not going to get a shield for an 09 SERG....
     Any way, they tell me to buy a gasket for the 09 SERG, and it will install on my bike. I would like to have a new shield on my bike, but will this work or look like chit? My other faster option they say is pay for another shield to get the ball rolling, and they will refund me my money when they get my old one back.

All things considered and knowing CB is good at their word (at least they have been to me) I'd opt for buying another shield for my 2000 SERG.  This way you know you have a shield that is made for your bike and not making the one you have “fit”.  That's just my $0.02 worth.

I'm just the opposite, buy the gasket and put the shield on. It will fit just fine, and the gasket adds a nice finishing touch. Just be sure to use the hardware they sent you.

You gotta be smart enough to understand the rules of motorcycling, and dumb enough to think the game's important.

Didn't the fairing change in 2004? I can't see getting the proper fit even with a gasket.

"Didn't the fairing change in 2004? I can't see getting the proper fit even with a gasket."

I don't think the actual plastic shell of the shark nose changed in 2004 but the angle in which it sits on the frame changed, so theoretically, the CB 14inch could fit the same as it does on the 2009 bikes- with the new gasket of course. I may be wrong and if so, some one here will let us know.
